I Still Survive
The pain you inflict,
Mental and physical;
I endure day and night,
I still survive;
More sufferings I bear,
More the endurance I build;
You uninvited guest,
Captivated my body and mind;
Without my knowledge,
Touched me, hurt my heart;
Weakened my scenic body,
Coerced me to lie in clinic bed;
Can give as much pain
As the power you may have,
I still survive;
'O' you evil cancer
From land of tophet;
You are mistaken,
If you think can destroy me;
May perish my body,
Not me, my soul,
I still survive;
